BMW M3 DTM Champion Edition

The BMW M3 seems immortal because of all the special series by the House Ethics, but now I get one that has an insured value for collectors: the DTM Champion Edition. Made to celebrate the return in the DTM, which won the driver’s title at the hands of Canadian Mario Spengler and thanks to Team Schnitzer will be built in only 54 units and will be available in February 2013 on various markets. Currently the price has been disclosed only for German customers which stood at € 99,000. Aesthetically it is characterized by the special Frozen Black metallic paint, wheels, matte black strip in the livery M through the rear trunk and roof, the big M on the front wheel arches and the Canadian flag with the letters SPE in honor of Mario Spengler DTM Champion 2012 is written on the side window.

Inside there are plenty of references such as racing carbon fiber, the steering wheel rim in Alcantara, and the signature of the Canadian pilot who stands on display on the dashboard in front of the seat reserved for the front passenger. While near the center console, handbrake lever boasts the initials M Power. Obviously the interior is leather because this M3 is exquisite in every detail.

However there’s no news from the point of view of mechanics that in all probability remains the same, but it is seen to be regretted that the V8 from 420 hp of the M3 is an engine still valuable with regard to the performance, delivering and should be considered a must for fans since it will be replaced in the future by a twin-turbo V6.
